Team of the 1950\'s announced

Three St George players are included in a rugby league Team of the 1950s announced at a lunch in Sydney today, with Reg Gasnier, Johnny Raper and Norm Provan reflecting the club's dominance in the latter part of that decade.

Gasnier and Raper, along with North Sydney's Ken Irvine, joined an illustrious group of players to be selected in successive Teams of the Decade following last year's selection in the Team of the 1960s.

Clive Churchill was a stand out selection at fullback while South Sydney great Greg Hawick pipped Brian Clay for the five-eighth position and Keith Holman was a unanimous choice as halfback.
